Chapter 2: Behind Closed Doors.

Tamaki walked down the hall, slightly swinging his bag around. What Hikaru said to him earlier was still ringing in his head. For some reason, it bothered him greatly. People have called him names before, but this one struck something deep within him.

He thought about something else, Kyoya Ootori. There was something off about him, but Tamaki couldn't figure out what it was. He's only just met him, but he didn't like the vibe he got off of Kyoya. There was a slight saddness in his eyes when Tamaki spoke to him.

"Oh, well. None of my business." Tamaki decided.

He stopped when he heard the Hitachiin twins voices drifting through the hall.

"I'm not joking, Kaoru! She asked me out, and I said no. Why would I lie about that?" Hikaru said as he walked into the hall. He stopped in the middle of his step when he saw Tamaki standing there.

"Uh..." Hikaru said, with his mouth gapping open.

"Can I help you, Hitachiin?" Said Tamaki coldly.

"No." Said Hikaru. He looked down at the ground in embarrassment. Kaoru elbowed him in the side and glared at him.

"Say you're sorry, moron." He muttered to his twin.

"I-I'm sorry, Tamaki. I didn't mean what I said." Hikaru bowed. "Forgive my rudeness."

"Oh, it's fine." Said Tamaki. "But please, refrain yourself from saying such words around other people, it's not very nice."

"Yeah, okay." Hikaru muttered.

"Great, I'll see you later then." Tamaki walked away.

Kaoru glanced at Hikaru. "Though he says it's fine, I don't believe it. I think you really hurt his feelings, Hikaru. You know Haruhi isn't going to forgive you easliy."

"What does Haruhi have do to with this?" Hikaru asked.

"She's still pretty pissed at you. You know she hates when people are bullied, and that's what you did. You better make it up to both of them." Said Kaoru.

"Okay! I will!" Cried Hikaru. "Sheesh, you'd think I killed somebody or something."

"I'm going to go talk to Takashi." Honey told Kyoya. "So if you need anything, just find me in his room."

"Which is where?" Kyoya asked.

"Room 304. You know, Tama-chan's room. Just climb the stairs and follow the numbers until you find it." Said Honey.

"Alright, I can do that." Said Kyoya.

"Great." Honey picked his bag up and opened the door. "Bye, Kyo-chan."

"Goodbye, Honey." Repiled Kyoya.

The blonde boy smiled one last time before closing the door behind him. Kyoya waited a minute before picking his bags up off the floor and started to unpack. He didn't bring much from home. Just some clothes for the days he didn't have to wear the school uniform, and some books. Some would say that Kyoya was a boring person, never leaving his room much, always with his nose in a book. But that wasn't true, there was a reason why Kyoya never left his room unless called.

He ignored the throbbing in his wrists and continued unpacking. He put the books on top of his night table and put his clothes in his closet.

He turned around when there was knocks coming from his door. He walked over and opened the door to reveil to a boy and girl standing there.

"Can I help you?" Kyoya asked them.

The brown-haired boy shook his head. "Nope. I just wanted to me the new kid." He stuck out his hand. "I'm Haruhi Fujioka."

Kyoya grasp the hand. "Kyoya Ootori."

"I'm Renge Houshakuji." Said the light brown-hair girl.

"A pleasure to meet you both." Said Kyoya. "So, are you two dating?"

Haruhi looked at Renge and paused, before bursting into laughter with her. Kyoya just stood there, not quite sure what to do.

Haruhi wiped a tear away. "Hell no. Unless Renge became a lesbian when I wasn't paying attention, 'cause I'm a girl."

"Oh. I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were a girl, since you're wearing the boy's uniform and all." Said Kyoya. He felt quite embarrassed by his mistake. It's quite obvious that Haruhi was a female, she had a soft looking face.

"It's okay, I get that all the time." She smiled. "Nobody's ever asked if me and Renge were dating before, that's a new one."

"You're not my type, Haruhi. So I wouldn't even date you if you were a guy." Said Renge.

"I am so your type, you lying cow. Didn't you ask me out on my first day here?" Asked Haruhi.

"Wh-whatever, Haruhi, I didn't know." Stuttered Renge. "Anyway, how do you like it here, Kyoya-kun?" She asked him.

"Well, I haven't seen much yet. I did meet the president's son, though." He almost blushed when he thought of Tamaki. "He was very nice."

Haruhi nodded. "Yeah, he is. I like him enough."

"Not my type, though." Stated Renge. "I think you are, Kyoya-kun."

"Well, unfortunately for you, you're not my type. Unless you're actually a guy in diguise, too." Said Kyoya.

"Oh, damnit! Why are all the good lookin' ones gay?" Renge cried. "Life's so unfair!"

Kyoya smiled. Maybe this school will be a good thing. Compared to home life, this couldn't be too bad.

Honey knocked on the door and waited. The door opened to reveil a tall dark-haired man with brown eyes.

"Hiya, Takashi." Honey walked into the room and sat down on the bed. "How was kendo?"

"Fine." Said the man called Takashi.

"So, I got a new roommate. And the best part is Tama-chan likes him, and I think he likes Tama-chan back! So maybe, Tama-chan won't be so lonely an' sad anymore if Kyo-chan becomes his friend." Said Honey.

"Mm." Grunted Takashi.

The blonde boy fell back on the bed. "How is Tama-chan doing? Is he getting any better?"

Takashi sat down on a chair and nodded slightly. "Not so depressed anymore."

"People need to stop picking on him." Fumed Honey. "It's not his fault that he's the president's son. It's not like he asked for it."

"I know it's not fair, Mitsukuni." Said Takashi calmly. "But some people don't understand sometimes. Look at Haruhi Fujioka, people picked on her when she first got here. But she stood up for herself, and now people don't bug her as much."

"Are you saying Tama-chan needs to stand up for himself?" Asked Honey.

Takashi nodded. "People will keep knocking you down unless you do something about it."

"But, Tama-chan doesn't like to make people mad or upset." Said Honey.

"True."

Honey gave a big sigh. "Sometimes he can be too nice."

Takashi nodded again. They both sat there in silence, trying to figure out how to help their friend out.

Hikaru walked down the hallway in anger. It's not my fault that he's a prat! He thought angerliy. How am I going to make it up to him and Haruhi? I don't like him, it's not fair that I have to be nice to the guy.

He slammed the front doors open. Storming down the steps, he pushed people out of the way. Why do I have to be the nice one? How come people don't have to be nice to me? I hate everyone 'cept Haruhi and Kaoru!

Nobody could understand the anger of the Hitachiin boy. How could one understand, when the anger came from the lost of a loved one. Hikaru had anger issues to begin with, but they got worse with the death of his mother. Kaoru was the only one who could calm the storm inside him when he got upset by something.

He walked all the way to grassy area of Ouran. People didn't come here often, since there was nothing to see. People came to Ouran to see the rich, beautiful sights of the place. They didn't come to see some grass. But Hikaru liked it here, it help him think.

The wind made the grass and trees sway as he sat underneath the trees. He took a deep calming breath to calm himself down. Sometimes he worked himself up too much, and couldn't calm down afterwards.

Maybe I should see what the talk about the new kid is... Hikaru thought. What family did he come from again? Oh, yeah, the Ootori's. He closed his eyes and drifted off into a peaceful sleep.

Kyoya waved goodbye to the two girls while they walked away. That was nice. He thought. He was just about to go back to unpack some more, when he noticed someone standing around the corner. The boy had orangish coloured hair and golden eyes.

"Is there something you need?" Kyoya asked the boy.

The boy step out from the corner. "Uh, hi. I-I'm Kaoru Hitachiin. You must be the new student, the Ootori kid."

"Hello." Kyoya smiled. "I'm him. My name is Kyoya. So, you're a Hitachiin. Never thought I'd meet one."

"Yeah, well, I never thought I'd meet an Ootori. So I guess it's a first time for everyone." Kaoru laughed. Man, he's handsome. I didn't think he'd be so good looking. He thought to himself.

"Well, it was nice to meet you, Kaoru. I hope we can talk again soon." Said Kyoya.

"Yeah, it was nice to meet you too, Kyoya. I better let you get back to unpacking. Later." Kaoru walked off.

"Goodbye." Said Kyoya.

Now, he would make a good looking boyfriend. Kaoru blushed to himself. Why am I thinking like that? He might not even be gay. He sighed. "But he was just so... hot."

Orangish. What a weird word. Anyway, it might be awhile before the next chapter comes out. I have two reasons. One: I am sick. I don't feel like writing sometimes when I'm sick. Number two: I'm also writing a Yu Yu Hakusho fanfic called 'That's life I guess', and it's coming to an end soon. So I'm busy writing that one also. Please be patience and try not to annoyed if it doesn't come out quickly enough for you.

Leave a review if you feel like it. But please, if you're going to favour the story or alert, leave a review at least.
